Hi guys, Been messing around with Exploud and have started using him as somewhat of a special-tank. Something that ends most special sweepers runs. The set is as follows: Exploud@ Assault Vest 252Hp/ 252 S.Def/ 4 S.Atk -Ice Beam -Fire Blast / Flamethrower -Boomburst -Bulldoze The main aim of...

Clefairy and Togekiss sound like very nice options actually. I've been using a Klefki and agree that it does give some nice support, however I would prefer not to have a defensive core of three poke's without reliable recovery. Still, I think Klefki could well have a place on a team with these...

I'm thinking of having a defensive core of Mega Aggron and Bulky Gyarados, however I'm currently struggling to think of a third to complement them... The best option I've thought of so far is a Wish passing Fairy type, that can both take special hits well and support the other two who lack...

Not sure what you're trying to say here, you need to put more thought into your posts #:) But Ferrothorn can't deal with fire moves- he's 4x weak! (Not sure if that's what you meant)

Ferrothorn doesn't resist ground. Snorlax (I'm pretty sure) doesn't get SR either.

Megaggron not only loses its rock typing but also gains filter as an ability meaning it can take even SE physical hits a lot better. It will surely be at least a contender for OU with 140 base attack and a gargantuan defense. On the talonflame note- what takes more damage from a +2 flare...

I've been doing some testing on wifi and Exploud- unfortunately has been a little underwhelming. I was expecting something that would be a possible OU candidate, although most likely high end UU.. I think he'll probably become a UU, but not a top pick for that tier. Some points I will make...

Ahh, ok. That's pretty cool then! Yeah you do sort of need to build a team around him which is somewhat disappointing. Although the rewards of a set-up for Exploud might not be as high as some other sweepers / cleaners, he does pose a very notable threat and will more than likely take down at...

How does he learn Fake Tears btw? Sorry if it's obvious! Have to admit, those calculations were awesome though- shows he has real potential even against the big boys in OU. I agree with his typing not allowing many good switchins though, despite STAB Boomburst being incredible, if he had a...

Yeah he benefits from tailwind.^ Above post is true, the lack of switch-in ability is a problem though. Taunt could be another useful addition for coming up against certain walls. That fourth moveslot has a deceptive amount of options it seems to me!

^ At above post. I like the idea, giving Exploud some more 1v1 potential with the big special walls, considering Exploud has access to a scrappy Boomburst and Focus Blast, he can afford to only run three attacks! With flamethrower being the third. Those calculations are pretty impressive, but...

Whilst the SpecsBurster set would get nicely checked by those- not, however, if it was running LO or Lefties or Assault Vest (an item I was advocating in a post that got deleted...). You're right though, Exploud is a good Specsploud counter! I think running Assault Vest could be a viable...

I'm not so sure about PuP and Rest on him tbh, he's too slow and frail in the grand scheme of things for that kind of set, he needs to hit very hard straight off the bat. That being said I do agree that Focus miss would be good, possibly as a replacement for Ice Beam. In honesty though, NE...

Some interesting ideas here. I like the idea of it on a pokemon with sturdy! I think it could be a very handy item if it catches the opponent off guard- but losing the healing from leftovers (especially on something like klefki) could just be too big a sacrifice.

I saw this item in the Battle Maison and have been really tempted to buy it. I was thinking it could be nice on certain suicide-like leads, as it counters / deters opposing 'mons from setting up on you. For example, I was thinking of leading with a Klefki to lay down some spikes (and a t-wave)...

In terms of EV spreads what's the general consensus around here? At first I thought straight up 252 atk / 252 spd/ 4 hp but with how bulky this thing is maybe more hp investment is worthwhile, say something like 200 hp / 52 atk / 252 spd.. Any thoughts?

I agree! Really want a flying gem for this guy in game it'd be so beast on him!

how does shedinja learn Sword dance?

EvilBob to take this

I loved the switch of commentary, really was a clever idea. All in all it was a great warstory.
